The study involves a systematic investigation of\r\nintrinsic and carbon-related defects as well as defect combinations and defect migration by both, quantummechanical\r\nfirst-principles as well as empirical potential methods. Comparing formation and activation energies,\r\nground-state structures of defects and defect combinations as well as energetically favorable agglomeration of\r\ndefects are predicted. Moreover, accurate ab initio calculations unveil limitations of the analytical method based\r\non a Tersoff-like bond order potential. A work-around is proposed in order to subsequently apply the highly efficient technique on large structures not accessible by first-principles methods. The outcome of both types of simulation provides a basic microscopic understanding of defect formation and structural evolution particularly at non-equilibrium conditions strongly deviated from the ground state as commonly found in SiC growth processes. A possible precipitation mechanism, which conforms well to experimental findings and clarifies contradictory views present in the literature is outlined."}],"doi":"10.1002/pssc.201200198","has_accepted_license":"1","date_created":"2018-08-27T12:19:26Z","department":[{"_id":"15"},{"_id":"286"},{"_id":"170"},{"_id":"295"}],"author":[{"full_name":"Zirkelbach, F.","first_name":"F.","last_name":"Zirkelbach"},{"last_name":"Stritzker","first_name":"B.","full_name":"Stritzker, B."},{"last_name":"Nordlund","first_name":"K.","full_name":"Nordlund, K."},{"first_name":"Wolf Gero","full_name":"Schmidt, Wolf Gero","orcid":"0000-0002-2717-5076","last_name":"Schmidt","id":"468"},{"full_name":"Rauls, E.","first_name":"E.","last_name":"Rauls"},{"id":"20797","last_name":"Lindner","full_name":"Lindner, Jörg K.
